Disable auto link for any text starting with "www"

[Barbie]

How can I disable the automatically link creation for any text starting with "www"?
Example:

Code: Select all

www.nowhere

is rendered as a link: www.nowhere

[Buggie]

when your www.nowhere then nothing wrong with that.

Code: Select all

[inlinecode]www.nowhere[/inlinecode]

Thanks for answer, but that changes the display from rendering as link to rendering as code.
I tried also the numerical encoding for "w" (w) but that does not work as you see.

Try crazy unicode dot.
www․nowhere

Haha, nice workaround, thanks.

@Shade: Something like [noBBCode]…[/noBBCode] would of course be a cleaner solution.

I tried finding an extension for that but couldn't find any. But maybe I didn't use the right terms for the search.
Maybe you have some luck: https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/extensions-36

Btw, if you don't use any BBCode in your post at all, you can still check the box "Disable BBCode" for that post.

Post above with disabled bbcode. Link replacement it is not part of bbcode.[hr][/hr][autm][/autm]Also it is bug. Posts merged when bbcode disabled and not. So it goes to hell[hr][/hr][autm][/autm]"Do not automatically parse URLs" do the job.

"Do not automatically parse URLs" do the job.

That's what I needed. Thanks. IMO it should be enabled by default.

Oh wow, I was blind. I never use these checkboxes. But glad that the option already exists.
